EVOLUTIONARY CONSUMERS IMPLY MONOPOLIES EXIT
研究了当消费者逐渐向最优策略演化但可能暂时做出次优选择时,垄断者应如何定价,发现垄断者会设定价格路径使所有消费者最终停止购买其产品。
Abstract We address the question of how a monopolist should price when facing evolutionary consumers who gradually move in the direction of following their optimal strategy but may make temporary suboptimal choices. We show that under a broad generalization of the most commonly used model of evolution, the monopolist will set a path of prices such that all consumers eventually stop purchasing the monopolist's product.
